Moore testing hamstring, and the hamstring is winning

Wide receiver Denarius Moore stopped practicing Saturday after feeling pain in his right hamstring. He missed Wednesday’s practice as a precautionary measure, according to coach Dennis Allen.

“It’s coming along, right now just still taking it day-by-day,” Moore said Saturday, “see how it’s going to progress.”

It’s been hit or miss with hammy, and Saturday the pain hit.

“It’s when the pain comes, when it comes and bites me, that’s really what it is,” Moore said. “It’s just seeing what I can do each day, and then is the strength getting better or worse.”

Moore missed the last two days of minicamp in June with a hamstring tweak but he said he was 100 percent when he hit Napa for training camp last weekend.
